Do you need to be a skydiver before you become a base jumper?
Base jumping is for experts with lots of experience, so sky diving would probably be a pre-requisite. Thanks for asking ChaCha!

About Base Jumping
BASE jumping is the act of jumping from a fixed platform or position, at a great height. Base jumpers use parachutes to stop themselves from plummeting to their doom. BASE is also an acronym for the four different types of platforms you can jump from; Buildings, Antennae, Spans (bridges) and Earth (cliffs).
